For those who never saw this video, I have made a few mistakes in the original version I need to point out. For one thing, I have misassumed that the Southern #4501’s infamous 6 chime from 1985 was a CofG 6 chime, when it was actually a B&M 6 chime, according to one of the videos which has somewhat convinced me about this. Second of all, te whistle you thought was from T&P #610, was actually from SP #4445, which we now know according to some sources. Thirdly, the text you see in this video are all white by default now.
Original video: • [OLD] Train Whistle Origin 8 Final Remake ...
As for K&L Trainz’s NYC Niagara whistle, I was told that it didn’t sound like the 765’s whistle, and didn’t understand if there was another audio clip elsewhere that used the same sound, or the same pitch. A little bit of feedback would help me out on this one a lot.
And the biggest mystery of all, would be Sam’s Whistle, which has me even more confused than ever. So according to the Pro Sound Effects website, there is a collection of train sounds, and for the whistles they are apparently labeled as it were recorded from a 1907 steam locomotive, but here’s the problem. There are a great number of steam locomotives preserved in the United States, and only a few of them are built in 1907. W&W #58 can’t be the possible origin because there are no recordings of this type of whistle being used on her whatsoever. C&NW #1385 can’t be it either since the whistle and bell don’t match the sound of the bell barely heard in the sound recording shown in the video.
That could only mean the one and only possible origin left would be Saginaw Timber/Polson Logging Co. #2, except she was built in 1912, not 1907, yet the whistle sounded the closest and the bell matches the sound perfectly! Perhaps the sound recorders mislabeled these sounds by putting in the wrong year? Were these sound recorders misinformed? I don’t know, but what I do know is that only until we get official confirmation by the studio behind these recordings will we ever know the true origin.
And of course, all the feedback is welcome for this video. And no, any questions regarding to my nutshells are still being ignored.
Interesting fact: The first whistle you heard in this video (used on Santa Margarita Ranch #2) was originally used on an SP Cab Forward locomotive. As for the Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad’s #10, I still have no clue. It sounded like an SP 6 chime, but I must’ve forgotten about what type it was. Oops.
